Beyond Macros Podcast

In today's episode, I bring you the second half of our carbohydrate discussion. In last week's episode, we discussed how to use a carbohydrate and protein combination, pre and post-workout to improve recovery, increase muscle building and strength and decrease muscle breakdown.

This is the second episode in our nutrient timing series, and I will be reintroducing you to the sweet, sweet nutrient called the carbohydrate. Carbohydrates are the secret weapon of most elite athletes, and research shows that they play an absolutely massive role in recovery from intense exercising and strength training. If you missed it, you should go back and download part one of nutrient timing series, where I give background on the concept of nutrient timing and I teach you about the best times to consume protein around your workout, how much of it to consume and why the long held belief that you have to consume protein within an hour of exercise might be incorrect.

In this episode, we're talking about one of the most important topics in the performance world right now - breath work. And we do that with us is Kristina Macias of Primal Coding.

The first episode in our nutrient timing series, and I’ll be discussing the most common question I get regarding nutrient timing.
